Writer Unblocked: Dr. Rod Berger on The Narrative Edge: Why Authors Must Tell Their Own Story
Description
How do you tell your story in a way that truly connects? In this episode of Writer Unblocked, I sit down with Dr. Rod Berger—global interviewer, communication architect, and author of The Narrative Edge—to explore how storytelling shapes not just our books, but our identities as authors.
Rod has interviewed over 4,000 people worldwide, from Pope Francis to NBA legend Magic Johnson and F1 Champion Jenson Button. With his debut book releasing November 12, he shares why storytelling isn’t just a writing skill—it’s a tool for self-worth, connection, and building an authentic author brand.
We talk about:
- Why so many authors hesitate to share their personal story
- How authenticity can transform you and your brand
- The vulnerability and self-worth behind writing (and publishing)
- What Rod learned from interviews across the globe and how it shaped his book
- Why every author should think strategically about formats—from print to audiobooks
If you’ve ever wondered whether your story really matters, this conversation will remind you: owning your narrative is your most powerful asset.
